PUB opens tender for 55 MW floating solar panels at Pandan Reservoir

The tender will close on 26 September.

The Public Utilities Board (PUB) has called for tenders for the development of a 55 megawatt-peak (MWp) floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) system at Pandan Reservoir.

The appointed developer will install floating solar panels on the reservoir's surface, covering 22% of the space.

The developer will be involved in the engineering, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of the floating solar PV (FPV) system.

PUB aims to complete the project in 2028.

Once completed, PUB said the FPV system will generate enough solar energy to power the equivalent of 16,000 four-room HDB flats.

"The FPV will help to reduce carbon emissions by about 27 kilotonnes annually, similar to taking 5,800 cars off the road," PUB added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
